So on Sunday my cuz from Westchester came up to visit because she has also just graduated and is looking to start her career as well soon. At the moment she has some free time though and wanted to come up to see the Giants Training Camp thing that goes on at UAlbany over the summer. We had some fun catching up and going to the camp and then to the Pump Station later for a late lunch/early dinner. Then after she left, the facade of having a normal family dropped and s*** got real. Dad called me and my bro over and then told us that we either have to put in a minimum of $1000/mo for the house and our expenses or surrender our paychecks over to him in order to keep living here in the manner we are now. Needless to say i was pissed but at the same time I knew where he was coming from. I kept a running commentary of my thoughts on paper while all this was going down and thought I'd share what I wrote:
- Tensions are high here
- I hate when dad's angry
- Mom's getting fed up as well with our lack of progress
- I'm still waiting to be kicked out
- My brother has a big ego and a bigger mouth
- There goes my $$, I'm losing my paycheck
- I need a real job.
Yeah not really descriptive I know but my thoughts were scattered all over and I can't take being here for much longer.
Anyway aside from that I got a call about another job offer on Monday morning as well. It's a full time position but only for 3 months or so working on a single project for Roth and Rau repairing 300 robotic machines for Global Foundaries. I NEED this job to keep me going and for the experience on my resume. I feel like if I can land it, my luck and my situation will finally turn around.
Good bye whatever semblance of a social life I have left...we had a good run.
